⚑ Bolt: Offload SHA256 hashing to background task

πŸ’‘ What:
Moved the SHA256 hashing logic in ClipboardMonitor.swift from a synchronous execution on the Main Actor to a detached background task.

🎯 Why:
ClipboardMonitor is an @MainActor class. The computeHash function performs synchronous SHA256 hashing. For large clipboard content (especially images), this computation can take 10-50ms or more, blocking the main thread and causing UI stutters or dropped frames during clipboard polling/processing.

πŸ“Š Impact:
Eliminates main thread blocking during clipboard processing. The UI remains responsive even when copying large files or images.

πŸ”¬ Measurement:
Profile the application with Instruments (Time Profiler) while copying a large image (e.g., 20MB). Before this change, you would see computeHash executing on the Main Thread. After this change, it will appear on a background worker thread.

Moves the CPU-intensive SHA256 hashing in `ClipboardMonitor` to a detached task. This prevents blocking the Main Actor (UI thread) when processing large clipboard content (e.g., high-res images).

- `computeHash` is now async and runs on a background thread.
- `processText` and `processImage` await the hashing result.
